I believe this should be prevented. I just found in docs that there is
a
SPAMMODE option:

[...]

this is on purpose. It doesn't bring anything to hide mail addresses,
but will be very annoying if you want to follow-up with someone
directly...

I understand your position very good: If we want to use the archives (will be improved, I'm sure), it doesn't make much sense to hinder people form replying directly.

On the other hand: This question has been raised on the OOo mailing lists every now and then, leading to annoyance and people leaving the community. This can't be avoided by adding another phrase to the subscribe link or in the subscription autoresponder - people act before they read (if they read at all).

So I'm thinking about an option to show the mail addresses only if you are logged in. Don't know if this is hard to achieve.

But even if SPAMMODE is nothing you really can believe on, it shows that we care for these fears (and it might reduce SPAM to some - unmeasurable - degree).

This could only be a possibility, if it can be achieved without much work - I think we have much more important tasks at the moment.

Best regards

Bernhard
